hiexpowhat is the differance on the 10.04 alternative and dexktop?00:01
gordonjcpif anyone's interested, what I did was boot the .iso image with qemu, with the whole disk I want to install onto a partition of as qemu's hard disk00:01
jribRobotCow: start your own ppa :)  You can even have it automatically pull git and build the package for you00:01
IrreducibilisThere's no way to pause an update?00:01
gordonjcpit's pretty slow but the installer is running now00:01
bazhangIrreducibilis, no00:01
IrreducibilisDamn.00:01
gordonjcpit's a shame it's not easier to just install Ubuntu from removable media00:02
RobotCowhiexpo, gui installer vs ncurses (debian installer) with more options for advanced users like setting up raid and/or LVM00:02
Wiesshundgordonjcp hmm? ubuntu installs from removable media00:02
gordonjcpWiesshund: how?00:02

jgcampbell300hello, I am looking for a piece of software for ubuntu that will let me draw out a flowchart of my network i am building so i can visualize what i am about to do. Do any of you have any suggestions. Please keep in mind I am not looking for something extremely complex.00:02
bidaboyhi all,when i try to mount an ntfs partition i got this error msg : Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 13: $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0).00:02
gordonjcpWiesshund: I've been trying to find accurate documentation on it all evening00:02
Wiesshundyou can install it from cd or usb drive easily00:03
brontoeeejgcampbell300, maybe yed, its java app00:03
greppyjgcampbell300: look at dia00:03
gordonjcpWiesshund: there's no USB image availagle00:03
rtdos_AFKsorry guys, i was installing a script in xchat and didn't see that my preferences conflicted with the script. :">00:03

Dangr_Test00:03
Dangr_Ok that we go00:03
gordonjcpWiesshund: and just dd-ing the image to a USB stick doesn't appear to work for Ubuntu00:03
jgcampbell300thanks for the suggestions ... i will look them up now00:03
IrreducibilisWhat if my laptop goes to sleep on it's own when its updating? Will that screw it up too?00:04
gordonjcpWiesshund: I tried unetbootin but it was messy and confusing, and still didn't actually write anything resembling a bootable image to the USB stick00:04
bazhangIrreducibilis, it wont00:04
IrreducibilisI'm basically worried that I have to sit here and babysit it00:04
Wiesshundgordonjcp http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/00:04
brontoeeejgcampbell300, also there are some nice online sites that offer such software00:04
gordonjcpWiesshund: doesn't work00:04
IrreducibilisOh okay.00:04
trakinasdodgy_script: if you have a ssh server, is possible. =P00:04
gordonjcpWiesshund: it doesn't actually produce anything that boots on any machine I've tried it in00:04
DiamondSwordgordonjcp, you're trying to install ubuntu from the usb?00:05

DiamondSwordgordonjcp, i installed this ubuntu from my usb today. and all was fine.00:06
gordonjcpDiamondSword: I didn't get anywhere with trying to put the Ubuntu installer on a USB stick00:06
gordonjcpDiamondSword: what did you use to copy it across?00:06
rostamiquit00:06
rostamiexit00:06
DiamondSwordgordonjcp, you need to fist download the .iso file. did you?00:06
gordonjcpDiamondSword: yes, of course, that's what qemu has booted00:07

stefanos90<trakinas> it is kompozer.. :)00:44
Wiesshundx_ is it an onboard?00:44
x_Wiesshund, yea on a brand new gigabyte i3 mobo00:44
trakinasRypervenche: if Im not wrong, windows become slower because of the pagination file. since you have a separate partition with your swap, I *think* it won't be slower.00:45
dodgy_scriptfoolhardy, no x then lol ... is dhclient installed ?00:45
WiesshundRypervenche running out of disk space doesnt really do any OS much favors. but if you have swap on a spearate partition it should keep running ok00:45
foolhardydodgy_script, I have tried running it and i get returned "no working leases in persistent database - sleeping"00:45

foolhardyhow can I check for an ip dodgy_script ? - what is the cli's ipconfig00:48
DiamondciteRypervenche: Ubuntu might work a little better than windows, as Wiesshund stated, swap is on another partition, so running out of disk space won't hurt much, system will keep running. Since linux has reserved 5% of each partition for itself for CRITICAL tasks, even when you run out of useable diskspace, important information is still being stored and written, unlike windows which stops ^_^00:48
greppyfoolhardy: ifconfig00:48
x_Wiesshund, so thats why my spdif doesn't work? and can you tell me where you figured that out00:48

naptasticlake, sadly, it's quite difficult to do that. The easiest way is to get a patch cable and connect your line out to your line in, and record your line in.03:02

sandydlake: yup03:10
lakegreat03:10
sandydlake: but Ill assure you that it will perform MUCH better than pulseaudio ;)03:10
rwwZelozelos: I've never played with it, but there should be an accessibility icon somewhere along the bottom you can click to change magnifier settings. Looks like a person in a circle.03:10

Zelozelosrww sometimes i can see it but i cant click on anything but the login names/cancel button03:11
cogsworthHow can the uncompressed files possibly be smaller than the compressed container?03:11
mellinAnyone have some reading for me on how to monitor and watch to see if anyone is trying to breach my system? What I'm thinking is it is possible for example to grep the ports somehow to see if someone tries to exploit said port. I know /var/log can be reviewed, but I'm wanting to learn better how to use the command line and programs that are available to me there03:11
naptasticsacarlson, I have the right drivers, at least, I'm pretty sure.03:11

CJ232Anone know if I can move a non adjacent partition to next to it if there is another partiion in the way like | C: | D: | unalloted |?03:15
WiesshundI dont think you can hop partitions easily03:15
sacarlsonnaptastic: did you try this https://launchpad.net/~serge-hallyn/+archive/kvm-pxe-backport ?03:15
CJ232How hard is it to "hop" paritions03:16
ayeceeCJ232: mostly time consuming, depending on the size. gparted takes a lot of the guesswork out of it.03:16
Wiesshundayecee gparted wont hop partitions though03:16
ayeceeWiesshund: really? it did for me?03:17
Anom_rww, ActionParsnip03:17
Wiesshundayecee it let you drag one over the top of others?03:17
Anom_how do I get the open source drivers working again ?03:17
naptasticsacarlson, reading..03:17
Anom_I installed (tried) the binary ones, but they didn't go.03:17
Anom_resolution is low, ect.03:17
ayeceeWiesshund: ah, that's just moving a partition, no?03:17
sandydAnom_, which ones. nvidia or ati03:17
CJ232yeah it jusrt moves it03:17
CJ232not hops03:17
Anom_sandyd, ati03:18
CJ232I dont think03:18
Anom_ATI 200M03:18
Wiesshundayecee no its moving say partition 1 over the top of 2 and 3 and dropping it like between 3 and 403:18
ayeceeCJ232: I don't understand the difference from your scription.03:18
rwwAnom_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver03:18
naptasticsacarlson, what does that do? I'm not sure if it will help me.03:18
rwwAnom_: I can't offer any help past that; my policy with fglrx for a long time has been "stay the hell away"03:18
ayeceeWiesshund: like, sliding 2 and 3 to the left, and dropping 1 between 3 and 4?03:18
CJ232aycee what do you mean03:18
sandydAnom_: you mind if I give you the instructions on pastebin?03:18
CJ232and I can move the partition over with gparted ?03:19
sandydAnom_: here http://pastebin.com/mnHMVJ7h03:19
ayeceeCJ232: sure, but it normally has to be moved into free space.03:19
Wiesshundayecee yea03:19
sacarlsonnaptastic: I think it fixes at least one bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/etherboot/+bug/617316 and hopfully our problems also03:19
ayeceeCJ232: what you might do is shrink the partitions so you have room to work with, then move them, then grow them. Really slow, but it does what you're asking.03:19
* rww notes that the commands on that pastebin are also on the wiki.ubuntu.com page03:20
WiesshundCJ232 you can mirrior the partition you want moved out of sequence, then after you verify its ok, you can remove the original03:20
sandydAnom_: if your using 64bit, the /usr/lib32/libGL* links may also be fried03:20
sandydAnom_: you need to restore those manually03:20
sacarlsonnaptastic: I norally try the easy solution first if that fails have to look closer03:20
Propelis ext4 the latest?03:20

ayeceePropel: it's the default for current ubuntu, yes03:21
rwwPropel: it's the lastest stable one, and the current default.03:21
CJ232never mirrored it before03:21
Propelahh ok. thx guys03:21
ayeceeCJ232: sorry, I can't follow that.03:21
WiesshundCJ232 i guess maybe we should ask why you think they need moved first?03:21
sacarlsonnaptastic: oh and I forgot you run 10.10,  I'm running 10.0403:21
webPragmatistpardon my ignorance but didn't ubuntu have an app to generate an ssh key and add it to the authorized_keys?03:22
mellinayecee: It really depends on what you want to try and accomplish with the filesystem. There are others that are for example better for really big file sizes. As stated ext4 should be more than adequate for most situations ;-03:22
naptasticsacarlson, yeah, the 10.10 vs 10.04 probably isn't a big deal03:22
webPragmatistah ssh-copy-id03:22
naptasticsacarlson, the PXE bug isn't affecting me; the problem appears to be in the mounting of the root over NFS, or what happens after that.03:23
sacarlsonnaptastic: can you mount the nfs from a system that's already booted?03:23
ayeceemeway: did you mean to address Propel?03:23
ayeceeoops.03:23
WiesshundCJ232 tell us what your trying to accomplish, maybe we can give you better answers03:23
ayeceestupid autocomplete.03:24

samfirewhere can i get packages from for ubuntu so i can local install them? i need network-manager so ican connect from the ubuntu box.03:25
ActionParsnipbencahill: what is?03:25
ActionParsnipsamfire: package.ubuntu.com03:25
rww!offline | samfire03:26
ubottusamfire: If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ - See also !APTonCD03:26
CJ232I have a drive with a C: primary partition and a extended partitions with D:  and also 976 mgbytes of unalloted space03:26
samfirethanks :) its packages. but i found it.03:26
CJ232ayecee:  the extended is split so the extended has two logical drives D: and unalloted space03:26
bencahillActionParsnip: mellin (gone now) referenced ayecee where he should have referenced Propel, so ayecee tried to ask him if he meant that, but he made the same error due to autocomplete ;)03:27
CJ232i want to take the logical drive in the extendend partition and move it next ( in front of ) to C:03:27
Propellol03:27
WiesshundCJ232 unalloted space is just that unused, its not part of D:03:27
ActionParsnipbencahill: thats not ironic03:27
CJ232I know It is part of the extended partiton which contains the logical drives D: and then the unalloted space also03:28
bencahillActionParsnip: uk english?03:29
CJ232..03:29
ActionParsnipbencahill: Uk, Leeds, West Yorkshire03:29
Wiesshundunalotted belongs to no partition, you could make a new partition in it or you could grow D: into it etc03:29
bencahillActionParsnip: US here, probably a difference in terms :)03:29
CJ232D is just part of the extended partition though, and the unalloted is in the extended partition03:30
naptasticsacarlson, when I compiled the kernel, I made sure NFS and root over NFS were configured into the kernel, not as modules; though maybe I goofed in there somewhere?03:30
CJ232which is not D03:30
ActionParsnipbencahill: it'd have been ironic if the nick was 'accuracy' or something like that, Yeah the US 'ironic' is the UK 'coincidence', makes us all laugh over here03:30
naptasticsacarlson, (Sorry I'm so slow. My sister just called to say she's pregnant so I've been distracted.)03:30
ActionParsnipnaptastic: expected?03:31
WiesshundCJ232 unalloted space is not part of a partition, hence its unalotted. If you want to use it the easy way would be grow D: into it03:31
sacarlsonnaptastic: no rush on my side, ok can you mount then from a booted system?03:31
bencahillActionParsnip: oh yes, not a coincidence, but ironic because in trying to correct he made the same error as the one being corrected :)03:31
bencahillneedlez: anything?03:31
Wiesshundor you could grow D into it, then shrink D and grow C if you want C bigger03:31
naptasticActionParsnip, yes. Actually I predicted it a month ago.... I was too early!03:32
sacarlsonnaptastic: I mean can you mount nfs from a booted system?03:32
naptasticsacarlson, yes, mount, read, write and execute. Everything works correctly from a booted system.03:32
ActionParsnipnaptastic: than in that case, congrats03:32
naptasticActionParsnip, thanks! Their first child is adorable and I'm excited they're having another.03:32
ActionParsnipbencahill: i guess, makes sense :D03:33
bencahillActionParsnip: ;)03:33
sacarlsonnaptastic: I also had problems in dhcp with the ip change that gave me problems in nfs,  not sure this is your problem03:33
CJ232but D is a logical drive ... but it's good it will be not part of any thing and I can just grrow C:03:33
CJ232*grow03:33
WiesshundCJ232 are you running linux or windows or both?03:33
CJ232both03:33
=== sjd_ is now known as sjd
Wiesshundok cause you keep using windows terms, was wondering03:34
CJ232oh sorry03:34
WiesshundCJ232 in in simple, which partition did you want bigger?03:34
bencahillWiesshund: wait, c: and d: are windows terms? ;P03:34
CJ232the C drive but I am in xp03:35
edbianbencahill, definitely03:35
zvrkCJ232, you sure about that d drive logical is usually recovery from your win03:35
elitedevlol03:35
bencahilledbian: jk ;)03:35
CJ232which the capitalistic M$ programmer wanted you to pay for partiton software03:35
CJ232not that it's a bad thing03:36
WiesshundCJ232 ok then what you do is, you grow d into the unalocated space. when that is done, you drag the front edge of D and shrink it again, making a gap between C and D. When that finishes, you drag the back edge of C and give it the sapce you just made03:36
bencahilldoes anyone else have any idea why i can't boot past /scripts/init-bottom03:38
bencahill?03:38
WiesshundCJ232 partition tools are free, but the average MS user isnt capable of using them without destroying the whole works.03:38
Wiesshundbencahill can you boot the live cd fully?03:38
naptasticsacarlson, I don't think DHCP should be a problem; everything is static and well-defined03:38
bencahillWiesshund: no03:39
naptasticsacarlson, running my own DHCP, BIND, NFS, tftp, etc is awesome :-) I love being in control.03:39
bencahillWiesshund: never associated the two, but it's probably the same problem, now that i think about it :-/03:39
CJ232so shrinking from the fron doesnt mean that's where the data that;;ll get overwrittens at on the track of th disk03:39
Anom_ActionParsnip, hey03:39
Anom_ok so that ATI 200M is not compatable03:39
CJ232the plates of the drives tracks03:39
sacarlsonnaptastic: the process of pxe involves dhcp look in the dhcp logs to see if the boot tries to get two different address03:39
ActionParsnipAnom_: sup03:39
Wiesshundbencahill did you check the boot cd on another machine just to verify it didnt have an error in creation etc03:40
ActionParsnipAnom_: I believe it will use the open driver. You may need an xorg.conf file to make it nice]03:40
naptasticsacarlson, where do I find the dhcp logs?03:40
sandydbencahill: I havent been checking on the convo cause I went outside to give my dog a run, but you tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1271827 ?03:40

schwinn434nit-wit: I installed both os s on one hd, now03:46
schwinn434and it works, with ubuntu 10.10 the default03:46
Anom_sandyd, the reason I am asking is because I am not very skilled03:47
WiesshundMy favorite way to install (with 2 HD) is install windows in HDA, then unplug HDA and install linux on HDB. then either drive could explode, and the other os would boot just fine03:47
naptasticsacarlson, copy that. Checking...03:47
Anom_I mean I can do a few things, but is it easy to install ??03:47
schwinn434gave up on installing unbuntu 10.10 to its own hd03:47
nit-witschwinn434, okay, if you can get the slave first in the bios you could install there.03:47
naptasticsacarlson, yeah, that appears to just be dynamic leases... hang on...03:48
schwinn434nit-wit: thx for the info03:48
txdvWiesshund: it is very unlikely that either will explode03:48
txdvi got 9 os'es on one disk03:48

rwwrvn: Good luck. When it breaks horribly, support for unreleased versions is in #ubuntu+1, not here ;)03:49
bencahillWiesshund: no, why?03:49
Anom_sandyd, maybe I should just configure my current open source driver03:49
Wiesshundtxdv i was being over dramatic :) but the point was one disk can disapear and the other wont care (In my case it dissapears cause i pull it and take it to another machine)03:49
Anom_so I don't screw things up03:49
rvnrww: i'm looking forward to it not breaking horribly, but we shall see, sir!03:49

naptasticsacarlson, then I have 10 static leases defined in dhcpd.conf. It is a bit of a hassle, but I'm a control freak so it all works out.03:50
Wiesshundbencahill cause i have a machine here roughly around that age, and it will not run 10.x either same boot issue, but it runs 9.x just fine. 10 doesnt like something on its funky motherboard03:50

purpzeyDoes anyone have experience with energymech? I am having some issues communicating with it and I really can't figure out why...03:51
Anom_sandyd, well I don't even see how to install it03:51
xaueiousi am not a long user of ubuntu, but somehow i think i have remapped my 'end' key to something03:51
Anom_there is no Ubuntu package03:51
xaueiousi can't use my 'end' key03:51

Boatingbum23when i play movies in full screen. If its not HD I can usually see what looks like  4 horizontal lines that appear when the frames moving, or if it is HD it slows the video down, any way i can fix this without replacing the graphics card?03:51
xaueiousnothing happens03:51
rvnxaueious: did you rule out hardware problems by booting to another OS or a live cd/usb?03:51
sandydAnom_: ill have to drop a line to handy to add it in once the forums are back up03:51
xaueiousit's not a hardware problem for sure03:52
xaueiousworks fine in windows03:52
naptasticsacarlson, okay, so I made a few different initrd's with different options. The one I just tried does manage to get a DHCP lease with the correct address. It starts trying to mount the root over NFS, then stops doing anything and I don't know why.03:52
xaueiousis there a way to troubleshoot this?03:52
xaueiousi'm using gnome03:52
xaueiousbut i installed compiz03:52
xaueiousmight have mapped it somewhere o_O03:52

haseepleasehelp meeee03:55
ActionParsnipthauriswulfa: i'd boot to livecd and fsck the partitions03:55
rvnthauriswulfa: sounds like hdd corruption, might need reinstall :/03:55
xaueiousi'll try something else03:55
haseeI have a netbook hasee and everything works perfectly, unless the suspension and hibernation, what can i do? (sorry for my English)03:55
nobodybkhey anyone , do you have damn vulnerable linux iso file download direct link ?03:55
rvnthauriswulfa: yeah if ur lucky that might fix it03:55
xaueiousi did make a xstartup file that was supposed to remap the windows key03:55
naptasticsacarlson, yeah, how do I tell what succeeds and what fails? I can see a lot of data, but most of it looks like a language I can't understand.03:55
xaueiousmaybe that did something03:55
nobodybk>hey anyone , do you have damn vulnerable linux iso file download direct link ? i need it03:55
Lavinhohello03:55
naptasticsacarlson, every boot attempt generates 26,000 packets of NFS traffic. :-)03:55
thauriswulfarvn: no other solution? as i don't have ubuntu cd now03:55
ActionParsniphasee: Have you stated your case/asked a question?03:55
Anom_sandyd, so put into software sources  "xorg-edgers" ?03:55
Lavinhoboas noites03:55
rvnthauriswulfa: well you can't boot, so you can't do anything without a live disk of some sort, right?03:55
Anom_I thought it would be like   ppa:xorg-edgers-ppa  something..03:55
sacarlsonnaptastic: well if you see a repeat of a packet without responce?  maybe there is also info in nfs logs?03:56
hasee??03:56
rvnthauriswulfa: you can make a live USB if you have access to another machine and you have a usb drive03:56
ActionParsnipnobodybk: this is ubuntu support, not damn vulnerable linux support03:56
haseeI have a netbook hasee and everything works perfectly, unless the suspension and hibernation, what can i do?03:56
ActionParsniphasee: I can't state it any simpler03:56
Anom_but your saying just xorg-edgers sandyo03:56
Boatingbum23when i play movies in full screen. If its not HD I can usually see what looks like 4 horizontal lines that appear when the frames moving, or if it is HD it slows the video down, any way i can fix this without replacing the graphics card?03:56
sandydAnom_: instructions are here https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa03:56
Anom_thanks !!03:56
ayeceehasee: the easiest thing to do is to avoid using suspension or hibernation.03:56

ActionParsnipxaueious: xev   is the same in linux03:57
rvnxaueious: xmodmap can do that, and it's used to remap too03:57
rvnthauriswulfa: puppy might not support teh filesystem you're using on ubuntu03:57
rvnthauriswulfa: by default ubuntu now uses ext403:57
thauriswulfano it supports03:57
rvnthauriswulfa: well if it supports it then don't worry, just use that to fsck it03:57
thauriswulfarvn: its supports ext403:57
sandydAnom_: remember to install ppa-purge after you add repo03:57
rvnthauriswulfa: doesnt matter what linux03:57
rvnthauriswulfa: it's like using XP to repair Vista, it will still fix03:58
thauriswulfarvn: how03:58
thauriswulfarvn:03:58
rvnthauriswulfa: fsck /dev/sda1 (or whatever your hdd is)03:58

ZenMastaanyone here know much about vsftpd? the channel is pretty dead and i'm having trouble uploading03:58

haseebut are all the same hardware (hasee)03:58
ayeceehasee: there are several hasee models03:59
sandydAnom_: because if you install it, running "sudo ppa-purge ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa" will return your system back to normal03:59
naptasticsacarlson, I am starting to think the fs I'm mounting into might be broken in some way. I'mma try something different...03:59
haseewait a minute03:59
Anom_sandyd, install gallium ?03:59
Anom_sandyd, I am adding this edgers source03:59
sacarlsonZenMasta: I think vsftpd defaults to only allow read,  look in conf files03:59
Anom_should that put gallium into my packages ????03:59
Anom_sandyd,03:59
Anom_?03:59
sandydAnom_: add it, run "sudo apt-get install ppa-purge"03:59
ZenMastasacarlson yeah I know, but I already edited the conf. I actually followed the ubuntu guide to set it up04:00
sandydAnom_: then upgrade everything04:00
ActionParsniphasee: netbooks use different hardware and this needs working around. Suspend can be quite tricky to get working. Depends on the hardware04:00
Anom_sandyd, ok04:00
cogsworthIs there any reason an 8 gig flash drive wouldn't support NTFS formatting04:00
sandydAnom_: upgrading everything should give you gallium04:00
haseeok04:00
sacarlsonnaptastic: I thought you said you mounted it from a booted system and it worked?04:00
dhanijeremygreetings... how do i manually create a bootable linux distro using USB?04:00
cogsworthI'm trying to format it to NTFS from GParted but it won't let me.04:00
rvncogsworth: i find that linux sucks at formatting things in windows formats.04:00
sandydAnom_: remember if it fails, ppa-purge is your friend.04:00
rvncogsworth: but what do you mean "it won't let you"04:00
cogsworthrvn: I was able to format a partition to NTFS from the Ubuntu LiveCD.  And I mean it won't let me as in the ntfs selection is grayed out in GParted.04:01
sandydcogsworth: you mean the option is greyed out?04:01
cogsworthsandyd: Yes04:01
sandydcogsworth: ah. that. you have to install ntfs-utils04:01
rvncogsworth: no idea.04:01
rvncogsworth: ah yeah that would do that04:01
cogsworthohhhh ok many thanks Sandyd04:01
naptasticsacarlson, yes, however I think I created it in an incorrect way, and in some subtle way, it will not boot.04:01
helidude20I just installed java6.22 from the repository. When I went to java.com to test it stated that the current version is 6.23. Will my system update to the latest version once it's available in the repository ? Thank you04:02

haseethe model is ME12X04:02
Anom_sandyd, ok perfect04:02
naptasticsacarlson, right now I am actually taking the hard drive I used to boot from and exporting the / partition over nfs; what I had tried was a copy of that partition made with find and cpio04:02
Anom_sandyd, ok upgrade or update >04:02
Anom_?04:02
naptasticsacarlson, and I think maybe the copy missed something important.04:02

naptasticsacarlson, that was the problem, apparently04:04
sacarlsonnaptastic: cool04:04
cogsworthrvn: I'm having some trouble finding ntfs-utils in the repository, is there any chance you might have it and could point me to it?04:04
naptasticsacarlson, spoke too soon. It got to a login prompt and now will not login. GRR!!!04:05
ActionParsnipnobodybk: what is DVL?04:05
rvncogsworth: i don't use the GUI, but you can open up a terminal when you know the exact name of what you want and type "sudo apt-get install <THING>", in this case ntfs-utils04:05
sacarlsonnaptastic: so if I upgrade with that backport then It should work for me then04:05
ActionParsniphasee: have you contacted the supplier?04:05
rvncogsworth: i dont use the GUI for the package manager, that is04:05
cogsworthrvn: Yes, I tried looking for it with aptitude and it isn't listed04:05
cogsworthrvn: I searched for "ntfs" and looked under all the utils listed04:05
rvncogsworth: did you try apt-cache search ntfs-utils04:05

rvnBluefever: anything proprietary for linux usually breaks after a while, and those aren't too new - 2007 iirc? - so they aren't likely to work on modern linux - try the windows version under wine, more likely to work.04:12

Wiesshundskilz just sign her of for free dyn-ip service04:23
mykalWiesshund, another dvd, same issue04:23
cj23oops04:23

txdvgetting the wan ip adderss is easy, 3-6 lines in ruby04:23
skrapssee it was me being retarded, sudo was killing me, rofl04:23
mykalWiesshund, perhaps i have missed something04:23

mykalWiesshund, will try now04:24
skilzI have the computer her, I want to do all that before she gets it back and knows04:24
Wiesshundskilz just use a dun-ip service then she will always be sisterpc.blah.com04:24
ActionParsnipskilz: you don't need it. Setup an account then install the client on the PC which will update the IP in the DNS at regular intervals so if the IP changes, you dont care04:24

skilzFor some reason, when I play a movie with VLC it works fine, but if it opens with movie player 'which is the default video player', I can't see any video till I reboot? It's so annoying, because the default player for video is movie player, how can I change it to VLC so it stays that way? I want so fix it too so I dont have to reboot so watch video and put up with the black screen.04:50
coz_Jankes,  you mean backtrack linux?04:50
infectedbraini dont know how. i know its Kill <process ID> but i cant find the ID04:50
ayeceeinfectedbrain: service stop gdm is usually better04:50
skilzIt's usually after I have played something with VLC, then I accidently play with movie player it shows blank.04:51

ActionParsnipcj23: you really need to ditch the 'drive' mentality dude04:55
infectedbraincant find things to do.... my Windows 7 hard drive ..... has games..... and stuff.... ubuntu has no good games that i was able to find....04:55
skilzWiesshund, ?04:55
mellinActionParsnip: Ok thanks. I'm trying to figure out why Ubuntu sees the WORKGROUP, but can't retrieve a list of pcs with shares. I already installed samba and smbfs...then checked smb.conf for the workgroup name there to make sure it matched. Still no joy and when I issue smbclient -L <ip> it gives me a NT_Server status error04:55
infectedbraincompiz is cool tho04:55
Wiesshundskilz right clikc a video file, and change its default app04:55
needlezinfectedbrain: use wine and play the windows games in Linux04:55
ActionParsnipmellin: if you run: smbtree    do you see PCs and shares?04:55
ayeceeskilz: system->preferences->preferred applications04:55
ActionParsnipcj23: if you can resize sda5 then sure04:56
Wiesshundinfectedbrain ubuntu has many good games, virtualy all your decent windows games to be exact, install wine04:56
infectedbraini can never get wine to work without crossover... plus the HDD im running linux on is only 40 GBs04:56
mellininfectedbrain: It wasn't really designed for "playing games" although you can pay to have software let you run and install pc games under linux04:56
ActionParsnipmellin: is the sharing PC running windows 7?04:56
infectedbrainFallout 3 doesnt work on wine04:56
sacarlsonskilz: maybe if you uninstall movie player, if it doesn't work why keep it?04:56
ayeceeskilz: movie player makes my whole screen blink once, but otherwise it works. I'm not sure what it's up to.04:56
infectedbrainNo bethesda games do except for morrowind04:56

infectedbrainriddick doesnt work.... i used to have a mac and i was an advocate for crossover....lots of my games dont work... and i have doom 3 installed on my windows drive....i wanted linux primarily to play open source games and to develop.... but yeah....04:58
Wiesshundskilz all you got to do is right click a movie file, and change the default app to the one that doesnt blank screen you04:58
=== ikey_ is now known as ikey
ikeybleh04:58
mellinActionParsnip: Yeah I figured as much, I'm just trying with limited skills to figure out if it is related to firewall, or something else. Smbtree lists out the information, but for the wrong PC04:58

buttpackerquake is a good game05:00
infectedbrainreally?05:00
bjorn_248hey quick question for you guys...usb sound cards should be plug and play even for ubuntu correct? Because I am not having that experience05:00
infectedbrainya i have quake on my windows side05:00
ayeceeskilz: I noticed that I didn't have the problem with nvidia's driver, but only with the nouveau driver that's the default in 10.1005:00
cj23ActionParsnip:  if I can't resize sda5, then you can't think of any other way?05:01
infectedbrainBjorn i think u still need drivers05:01
bjorn_248oh, where can I acquire them05:01
Wiesshundid software released source code for doom heretic i think hexen, and quake. its on thier ftp05:01
infectedbrainwhat are you using05:01
bjorn_248I've done unsuccessful google searches05:01
infectedbrainReally epic i love all those games05:01
ActionParsnipcj23: you should be able to, the secret with this sort of thing is to plan your partitions05:01
skilzayecee, It's a HDMI video card, it gave me audio problems too, I didnt have sound, so I had to mute the hd audio device and install alsatools05:02
bjorn_248well it's a usb sound card, but I have no other information other than Model: AD-AND0105:02
bjorn_248wait05:02
infectedbrainbjorn find the chipset of the card and then look for drivers for those. i needed to do that with my wireless card05:02
bjorn_248Model: AD-SND0105:02
Wiesshundinfectedbrain mind you sourcecode doesnt include any level maps, or game assets of course05:02
Wiesshundbut you can see how the game engine works, mod it etc05:02
infectedbraini understand that. but i have the levels and i think doom builder 2 makes quake lvls05:02
bjorn_248i have no idea how to find out the chipset05:03
bjorn_248here's the funny thing though, it worked the first time I tried it05:03
bjorn_248it just stopped working05:03
infectedbrainwell i am new to game programming learning SDL now.... but yeah.... suck to be all self taught ..... there is not 1 person i know besides my school IT guy who knows anything about programming05:03
ActionParsnipbjorn_248: lsusb   will help identify it05:03
infectedbrainbjorn yeah sorry past this point cant help ya.... im new to linux myself05:04
bjorn_248it's ok, I have some experience05:04
infectedbrainlet me find those source codes05:04
Wiesshundbjorn try typing lsusb in the terminal05:04
NaeblisI just installed xubuntu and had a terminal problem which is apparently bug 621927. Can't find an xfce fix for it.has it been released yet?05:04
bjorn_248ActionParsnip: I don't see any sound devices popping up05:04
ActionParsnipbjorn_248: try: sudo lshw -C sound05:04
bjorn_248hold on a sec05:04
Wiesshundbjorn_248 lsusb should show detailed info bout your usb audio05:05

infectedbrainwhat language are those codes written in?05:05
bjorn_248maybe now I can figure it out on my own05:05
Wiesshundinfectedbrain which codes?05:06
Wiesshundinfectedbrain like doom quake etc? c++05:06
infectedbrainthe doom source codes. and quake ones... i understand them not.05:06

infectedbrainhm.05:06
Wiesshundor is it just C05:06
NaeblisYeah, that's the plan. Its annoying that the terminal keeps saying its not fully functional.05:06
ActionParsnipNaeblis: I think I've had this. try adding to ~/.bashrc     exprt TERM=xterm      then try opening a terminal05:07
Wiesshundnah im sure quake is c++05:07
infectedbraini cant read c... but c__ has ben gaming industy standard since the 80s though right?05:07

jetoleHey guys. I just installed ubuntu 10.10 on my workstation at the office and it seems like my ssh keys are being password protected automatically through ubuntu. I delete the key. Create a new one (rsa 2048 bit), ssh-copy-id the key to a server. Test it. Log out of the xsession and log back in. ssh back to the server and I am receiving "Enter passphrase for key '/home/jetole/.ssh/id_rsa.pub':" which has no passphrase applied and when I hit enter I am then ...05:13
jetole... prompted for the password to login to the server hence my key is not being used. Also, after I log out and log back in, my public key (not the private key) now has the permissions 0644 which causes an alert from openssh client as well that I have insecure permissions on my key. Can someone please tell me what part of ubuntu is breaking my keys so I can tear it the hell out of my system?05:13

gluonmanMy visual effects are broken, and I'm having a hard time figuring it out.  I have nVidia driver260.19.29 installed, compiz is the window manager, and all my effects (desktop cube, etc.) are enabled, but desktop effects "cannot be enabled".  This happened right after breaking grub by attempting to install burg.  I accidentally deleted the grub directory after grub broke, and just reinstalled it.  What about reinstalling grub broke m05:29
gluonmany visual settings, and how can I restore them?05:29
MadRobotayecee, I've been unable to update my computer for a long time because of it, and I tried many possible solutions but nothing seems to work.05:29

naptasticayecee, correct! It seems to be working now. Thank you!05:29

MadRobotayecee, I don't remember exactly when, but it's been bothering me since 10.04.05:30
mOHawkok silly question i'm using 10.04 ubuntu and regularly use 10.10 ubuntu on another laptop now i can't remember where compiz is under i can't find it :P05:30

gluonmanbazhang, it's a more stylish grub.05:33
bazhanggluonman, in the ubuntu repos?05:33

mOHawkok not there? i don't see it listed hmmm i don't think i took it out but compiz is running05:34
ayeceeagu10^: aren't those like zip sfx, where the regular decompressor works?05:34
gluonmanbazhang, not standard repos05:34

agu10^ayecee, how is that?05:34
bazhanggluonman, so unsupported 3rd party stuff?05:34
agu10^no, I want to create a self extractor05:34
agu10^a binary file05:34
agu10^an executable05:34
agu10^that extracts itself05:34

gluonmanbazhang, burg is grub.  It adds OS icons05:34

bazhanggluonman, seems unrelated to compiz, you could certainly ask in #compiz though05:35
agu10^yes05:35
MadRobotayecee, The ultimate solution is that the glorified geeks at the Ubuntu development team should get back in that lab, close the door behind them and come up with better, less painful way to deal with packages, imho. -_-05:35

LinoSP|nethi     do u recommend to install 10.10 or 10.04 ????05:35
ayeceeLinoSP|net: yes05:35
gluonmanbazhang, you're suggesting it's a pure coincidence that all my graphics completely broke at the exact same time that grub did?05:35
agu10^ok05:36
agu10^I'll try that05:36
Wiesshundgluonman maybe silly question but is your gfx driver loaded?05:36
LinoSP|netayecee:  yes what?05:36
ayeceeLinoSP|net: yes, I recommend to install 10.10 or 10.0405:36
bazhanggluonman, there's not a connection that I can see. again compiz issues in #compiz , burg issues in their support forums05:36
gluonmanWiesshund, may not be the silliest question, actually, because I kind of assumed it was05:36
LinoSP|netboth????05:37
kernalogs7zip is similar to bzip2 .bz2 but slighly differing format05:37
gluonmanbazhang, you're not understanding that this is not a burg or compiz complaint/question.  This is visual effects in ubuntu.05:37
ayeceeLinoSP|net: nah, that'd take far too much space.05:37
bazhanggluonman, which would point to what Wiesshund asked05:37
Wiesshundgluonman might wanna check its actualy loaded and not running in a generic default05:37
gluonmanbazhang, Wiesshund yeah, I'm on it.  thnx05:38
mOHawkMadRobot: u think this is a painful way to deal with packages i remember when you had to do packages almost manually without synatic package manager05:38
rodneymillerpcaThis might be somewhat off subject. My apologizes if it is. Is there any java ide's for complete noobs other then eclipse and netbeen that run on ubuntu?05:38
ayeceeLinoSP|net: if you're on a home system, 10.10 is probably the way to go. It has the most up to date software.05:38

kernalogssimilar performance to 7zip/bz2 but maybe slightly better is BWTS before a deflate05:39
MadRobotmOHawk, I agree, mate. But I still think the way we deal with packages these days is in bad need for renovation (unless there's something wrong with that..).05:40
kernalogsi use netbeans 6.9.1, it has full screen render issues but fine otherwise05:40

Wiesshundmykal An error message that has puzzled many a X user is "Couldn't find matching GLX visual" (or similar) — it means that the program tried to use a GLX visual that was not available on that X server. A possible solution is to change the color depth to something that supports the requested capabilities.05:46

beautifulmiraclehi everyone05:47
bjorn_248is there a generic usb audio module/driver I should be using?05:47

bjorn_248well that's not what I wrotwe05:47

bjorn_248two methods...the "Test" button in Preferences sound, and also I have an mp3 file that I am trying to play, I realize that not playing a file might be caused by the player, but no system sounds are happening either, so I'm assuming it's the system05:52

Wiesshundbjorn_248 you said it worked once right?05:59
bjorn_248yes, when I first plugged it in, for a very brief period05:59
Wiesshundayecee yea kind of, you run it in terminal and it has settings you cant normaly see05:59
Wiesshundbjorn_248 there is the possibility it is defective, have you tested it in another machine or OS?06:00

DasEiraviepic3: success ?06:36
colonashunting: what happens if you start a sound player, like totem?06:36
kanjamy python path doesn't include dist-packages, which is where pip installs packages to. Anyone know how I can add that to my system python path?06:36
huntingcolonas: They'll play. No sound, though06:36
greppyneedlez: are the acpi tools/libraries not enough?06:36
colonashunting: I suggest you follow the path outlined by ubottu.06:37
huntingcolonas: My sound was working. I was setting up a backport to get my mic working. When I restarted, nothing could find either device06:37
needleznot really, I think you helped me yesterday with the C wrapper for shutdown06:37
huntingcolonas, Okay. Thanks.06:38
greppyneedlez: that was a shell script, not a C program.06:38
DasEineedlez: you could try shutdown -H  for sleep, and then call the script initally as root (sudo)06:38
needlezgreppy: im trying to write a script that tells totem to close after so long but then after close for it to put the computer to sleep ... only the issue is that it requires root priveleges for suspend commands and for shutdown commands, so I had someone help me make a c wrapper that does the same thing as shutdown and added it to me as users. any ideas??06:40
CheBuzz_HomeAccording to this https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/srtp, srtp should be a valid package, but trying to apt-get it gives me "Couldn't find package srtp"06:40
greppyneedlez: you could have sudo not require a password for those commands from your username.06:40
needlezDasEi:  still requires root so no good06:41
needlezgreppy: I don't want to remove my password because while this is my laptop that posses a security risk06:41
colonasneedlez: your user password won't protect your laptop, only full disk encryption will.06:42
DasEineedlez: I thought you started the script manually, and then can leave it unattended06:42
greppyneedlez: you don't remove the password, you just don't require a password for sudo to shutdown or suspend the computer.06:42
CheBuzz_HomeBut on my (non-server) Ubuntu machine, it finds it just fine.06:42
needlezDasEi: yes thats what i want to do is start and go to sleep, and for the computer to automatically go to sleep after totem closes06:43
huntingNo soundcards were found, and the fix they gave isn't working06:43
greppyneedlez: for instance, this in your sudoers: "needlez ALL=NOPASSWD: /path/to/your/script"06:43
needlezgreppy: ok so I can make it so pm-suspend no longer requires sudo?? or a password to run?? please explain06:43
needlezgreppy: did that yesterday and broke sudoers06:44
greppyneedlez: or: needlez ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/pm-suspend06:44

greppyif you add "needlez ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/pm-suspend" using visudo, you should be able to run "sudo /usr/sbin/pm-suspend" and it not require a password.06:47

needlezDasEi: i have already told it to kill totem after 2 hrs but even so it still requires me to add something to shutdown or put it into sleep mode. For some reason gnome-power-manager is messed up on my computer06:50
DasEineedlez: first try shutdown -H, which works different on different machines, (why no complete shutdown ?), then can : sudo shutdown -H -t 120, enter pas once once, then xscreensaver-lock06:51

solofightgreppy: what should i type in that file ?07:26
benjrhow do i do a search by mime type?07:27
cache_surplusi think cat is faster than more or less, i mean at spitting out info, rather than paging through it07:27
greppysolofight: take a look at "man interfaces" and/or zless /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples/network-interfaces.gz07:27
cache_surplusthe only time i like to use cat is in DasEi's example or if im doing a grep, but really less does the same thing at my level of understanding07:27
cache_surplusi couldnt tell the diff of cat and less, can anyone?07:28
solofightgreppy: thank you on it07:28
cache_surpluson a flat file i mean?07:28
greppycache_surplus: most uses of cat and grep are redundant, just an fyi07:28
macocache_surplus: depends how long the file is07:28
solofightDasEi: same old screen there, able to unlock it but no options to change it07:28
greppycat dumps output to standard output, less or more, are pagers.07:28
cache_surplusgreppy: my thoughts.. example i did a select * from a table in mysql, without setting pager to more/less and i was there for like 10 mins... waiting07:29
benjri dont like the way less puts on a seperate page of sorts, that disappears again, usualy i need to use the information in ym next command, so its easier if tis still on the screen07:29

DasEisolofight: you will have to log out again and run gnome control-center then, quite usefull, a second box07:30
yuvaDasEi: can se edit files in etc directly as in windows07:31
DasEiyuva: yes, but systemfiles as in /etc have ownership of root, so call gedit with gksudo07:31
DasEi!gksudo07:32
ubottuIf you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)07:32
cache_surplusdo you guys suggest not loading both kde and gnome on one machine? or it shouldnt matter07:32
cache_surplusoh and edubuntu07:32
yuvaDasEi: so that we no need use termina.07:32

cache_surplusand compiz07:40
nixjrtechbreak, the -f command should force it and it shouldnt be prompting you, if it is then im affraid im not sure howto help, im very new myself07:40
DasEiyuva: cp = copy, mv= move, rm = remove (delete)carefull with that if you are new to it, better do it graphically so it deletes to the bin, and not to unrevorable gone07:40
yuva<cache_surplus>:  i installed drupal in  ubuntu,,, so i need to create some files ,copy ,delete which is saved in /etc so plz hlp how to do this operation.07:40
bobthemilkmanOkay, so I accidentally overwrote a file that I didn't want to overwrite. I'm about to run Okay, so I've unmounted my /home, and I'm about to run "reiserfsck --rebuild-true -S -l /root/recovery.log /dev/sdb2", but is there a better way?  Note that I don't have any 250GB drives just lying around that I could use to backup the drive.07:40
bobthemilkmanErrr, a copy/paste in there made some strange English, but the problem remains.07:40
cache_surplushere is my point, i dont think there is a quick simple switch ability, there is going to be a certain amount of extra configs each time or restarting of gdm or kdm,, so forth so on...07:40

yuva<DasEi>: cant i do it without terminal.. means just by right clicking the mouse ...07:42
DasEiyuva: for your purpose: gksudo nautilus, if you're a former win user and want it quick and simple07:42
ActionParsnip!sound07:42
ubottuIf you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.  If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files,  see !players and !mp3.07:42
galagalagaladoes anyone have experience with xmonad?07:42
cache_surplusActionParsnip: i dont like your advice sorry, im a bit more detailed before i just install things, no offense. but i know better07:42
ActionParsnipcache_surplus: if you think so07:42
bobthemilkmanI'll give you the quick answer. Type screen. Hit enter. You're now in a virtual terminal. Hit ctrl+a then ctrl+d to break out of the virtual terminal and back to a real one.  Type screen -r to reconnect to a previously started terminal. Use the "exit" command from within the virtual terminal to kill it.07:42
nixjri know howto do a find, and howto display a mimetype, how can i link those two commands so it onyl finds those of a specific mime type?07:43
cache_surplusmatter of fact, if you know, great, if not, don't say a word. i have data at stake.. even though it will be a demo box07:43
cache_surplusyah, i think so07:43
bobthemilkmandevdrink_: You can read the docs if you want, and there's lots of interesting things (like running more than one at a time, using names for the terminals, etc.), but what I just told you is enough for you to do what you want.07:43
devdrink_so just screen command &07:43

huntingCan somebody help me with some sound problems?07:43
cache_surplusgreppy: i did07:44
bobthemilkmanYou might be able to do it that way. I'm not sure. I invoke it by typing "screen" then enter, then doing the commands from within it.07:44
cache_surplusgreppy: your special, you dont make simple mistakes07:44
DasEiyuva: if you are so new to ubuntu, I wouldn't recommend drupal.. linux is fine, but one shouldn't take first lessons on driverlicense on a highway maybe, just an idea07:44

ngrstanDasEi: i booted into livecd ubuntu 10.04, resized my main (ubuntu) partition just fine, installed winxp onto newly created ntfs partition.  it proceeded to screw up my mbr, and would only boot into winxp13:49
ngrstanso my process at that point was trying every method to repair the mbr, reinstall grub, etc13:50
nueselHas anyone an idea how to setup a network bond and bridge?13:50
ngrstanso far i've run into hangups at every stop. results so far have included: boots into grub itself.  also, boots into black screen.13:50
DasEingrstan: ah, so first few steps back, after resizing, did you adjust /etc/fstab ?13:50
ngrstanDasEi: i did not.  i used gparted to change the size of the main partition and add the new ntfs partition13:51
bonjoyeesanthust: delete the partition and also delete its entry  in fstab and reboot13:51
santhustcan i delete swap partition to create free space for /home/usr13:51
ngrstancurrently gparted, ubuntu installer, etc, all show the partitions just fine.13:51
santhustsorry /home/username13:51
DasEingrstan: so way to go is than, boot live cd, get the (now changed) uuids from your resized linux-partitons, correct fstab  and device.map,  chroot into the system, re-install grub and install os-prober13:52
aeon-ltdsanthust: yes, but you're gonna need swap space if you run basically anything that needs scratch space, or if you use hibernation13:52
DasEithen*13:52
DasEi!blkid | ngrstan13:53
ubottungrstan: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)13:53
santhust anyone please.. can i delete swap partition to create some free space for /home/username13:53
ngrstanthe current uuid appears to be correct, or at least its what i've pulled up in the console13:53
aeon-ltdsanthust: yes, but you're gonna need swap space if you run basically anything that needs scratch space, or if you use hibernation13:53
DasEi!grub13:53
ubottugrub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards.13:53
yoshcoooook, i have a bin folder with many binaries, i would like to be able to run it (in terminal) from anywhere. where should i move it, or add it to path. (windows users switching)13:53
ngrstani said grub, i meant grub213:53
DasEingrstan: the first link from !grub details how to chroot, but first the ""new"" partitons must be found again13:54
ngrstanthe ubuntu install is meerkat, i'm on a lynx livedisc, if that is relevant13:54
santhust<aeon-ltd>  actually installed ubuntu on 4GB pendrive.. now running out of space.. :(13:54
aeon-ltdyoshcoooo: how about symlinks in /usr/bin ?13:54

GHHDasEi, how can create the host name for permanent for my live cd(Perhaps need to edit manually somewhere)?13:55

aeon-ltdsanthust: not really, besides using gparted to edit them14:04
santhustaeon-ltd: can i do this while running ubuntu itself?14:05
santhustaeon-ltd: will there be any mounting problems etc.?14:05
aeon-ltdsanthust: i suppose so, but i wouldn't call that 'safe', corruption may occur when editing14:05
aeon-ltdsanthust: no, the uuids of the partitions remain the same, unless you delete them; resizing them doesn't change the uuids14:06

Picinishttal2: I don't see anything for that package either.  Do you have issues if you boot from an older kernel?14:58

PiciCombatjuan: Jaunty reached its end-of-life on October 23rd 2010.  You really should upgrade.14:59

DiverdudeHow do i play an avi movie over internet. I have it on my webserver under http://myip/vids/somevid.avi. If i open it in firefox or totem, then nothing happens. Its not because totem cannot play the file, because when i have it stored locally it plays fine...but served via http it works not. How do i then do it?15:00
PiciCombatjuan: Perhaps this is that reason ;)15:00
aeon-ltdCombatjuan: hmm, you may aswell report it under konsole, then test the others, if other terminals follow, then its probably X or udev not redetecting hardware inputs15:00

macomultiplatinum:  ati and nvidia drop support for older graphics cards every now and then. if yours was one of them, it may be a release or two before it gets full functionality back through a generic driver.  intel doesnt do this with their graphics, but there have been race conditions for them... whether your stuff will work with a new release kinda depends a lot on whether someone with the same hardware was active in testing and following up with developers18:00

takamarouHi all.  I've got a new ubuntu server 10.10 install going.  I'm adding users using 'groupadd -d <dir> -m <user>'.  For some reason, now when I log in as those users my bash .profile is not being loaded?  Anyone ever seen this before?18:34

WolfsherzEncrypte1: if you are absolutely sure that you will only use it with Ubuntu, then go for ext4. if there is just a slim chance you will plug that drive to another os one day use fat32...19:08
rubbshoneypot: traditionally it does things like "single-user-mode" "non graphics mode" and "gui mode" lower run levels would not load certain sections of the system. Looks like upstart kills off the whole runlevel thing though, so I'm not sure what is possible.19:08

Dr_Willisreplicasex:  I was thinking the Ubuntu-tweak tool let you tweak the titlebar/button placements very easially19:57
piyushmishraI am having a strange issue with my ubuntu. when I lft click or rt click, it takes it like the alt key pressed and when I actually press the alt key and click, it behaves like normal clicks19:57
misterwhen I try to start timidity I get this: chown: changing ownership of `/var/run/timidity': Operation not permitted19:57
KM0201amr: it looks like it has combined the left click and right click menus... that is strange....19:57
replicasexDr_Willis, that's what I thought but it seems to only let me place one spacer inbetween it o.O19:57
xanguaDr_Willis: maybe the emtacity theme aligns the tittle to the left or something19:57

amrabsolutely no clue how to fix it19:58
guampaanyone knows the reason why kernel.ubuntu.com doesn't upgrade its ppa? it only has a lucid backport, but over http it's full of kernels!19:58
amradding/removing, killing, rebooting havent done anything19:58
xanguareplicasex: you will manually need to edit the metacity theme you are using19:58
KM0201amr: but i fail to see how that would be a big deal.. you only see it when you left click the applet19:58
amrKM0201: a fault annoys me massively :p19:58
amrit shouldn't be like that in the first place so there's something wrong, which annoys me19:58
piyushmishraanyone else having an issue with mouse clicks? 10.0419:58
KM0201amr: i dunno... maybe is something that changed, who knows19:58
amrwell, if i remove the indicator applet, the wireless icon goes into the notification applet (different widget maybe?) and that menu is fine19:59
amrwell, it still has the right click in the left click menu19:59
amrbut there's formatting19:59
replicasexxangua, uh how would I do that? O.o  I could swear I have seen the option for left/center/right before.20:00
mellinmister: Basically it is saying that something is trying to change the file ownership at the specified path, which of course it won't allow20:00
pienkiehi guys. I've set up a media center host, which was working fine up to a point, but then something broke. the system itself is still seemingly OK, but my auto-logon is a bit weird. I've made backups & modified the '/etc/init/tty5.conf' fine, adding a line to echo some status into to a log file, but theres noting in the log file, wich leads me to think that the file is not firing off correctly. is anyone able to help me with the auto-s20:00

KM0201amr: strange, i wodner if the netbook interface has something to do w/ it20:03
Mrokiimilen8204: I think you can also export the files as mp3 (did that to turn songs into ringtones at one time).20:03
gordonjcpmilen8204: it loads and saves pretty much any format you like20:03
Programixi have this problem, i have dual boot with windows xp but i can't boot to it from grub for some reason, i get error 28. it worked fine a few days ago though. could someone help me please?20:03
shadow98it says he is the owner...how do i make it so we can both work with the files20:03
amrit's only a recent develoment, in the last day or so?20:03
milen8204morhook, i will try to export :D20:03
amrso perhaps if there was a recent package update for the netbook version20:03
gordonjcpmilen8204: if you do File->Save it saves the *project*, not the audio file - you want File->Export20:03
botcityamr: i know there is a command to reset the panel in gnome sorry i cant recall it ?20:03
piyushmishraDr_Willis: it showed up in my upgrade center and I let it upgrade. then I installed sugar from sugarlabs to try. it wasn't broken till then suddenly now it behaves as if alt key is pressed20:03
amrbotcity: heh that might be useful20:04
amrlemme know if you remember20:04
mistermellin: all I do is "/etc/init.d/timidity start" which I'm not supposed to sudo20:04
wedwo-milamber, it saves as .aup but has the option to "export" many other formats20:04
amraltho i'm not sure if that'd do it20:04
Dr_Willispiyushmishra:  Its possible sugar did somthing.. but i doubt if sudo did.20:04
milen8204gordonjcp, yes you are right Thanks alot20:04
milen8204Mrokii, thank you too20:04
Mrokiimilen8204: you're welcome.20:04

gordonjcpmilen8204: if you need something a bit more substantial you can use Ardour20:04
piyushmishraDr_Willis: how do I fix it now?20:05

electron80001i fixed the problem with the wrong libraries that didnt work by simply deleting them from the folders (i had the old ones in usr/lib, the new ones were installed into usr/local/lib) - is this the usual way to do uninstall?20:42
pienkieerUSUL: does that make sense?20:42
electron80001or is ubuntu setting something anywhere else during make install?20:42
aioobe_what is the propert way to disable gnome-panels (I may want them back some day so I prefer not to "delete" the panels....)20:43

VCoolioelectron80001: no, now you have installed packages that have missing files and will throw errors once you remove them; you uninstall the way you install, with synaptic or apt-get or whatever20:45

BluesKajmadjoe, you can't go wrong with vlc , it plays almost every kind of codec and even media that's wrapped in an iso21:01
doodoogreppy, they wont break my system right?21:01
infectedbrainerusul: i se noexec (i know thats the opposite of what i want) how do i change that21:01
ActionParsnipmadjoe: just install a few and try them, see which you like. They all use a central source for codecs so all players can play everything once they have the codecs21:01
greppydoodoo: they shouldn't, no.21:01
xanguamadjoe: well any player with the codecs supports all kind of files, VLC is supposed to support the most21:01
greppydoodoo: think of them more like the .dll's if you come from a windows background.21:01

ankuris there any alternative ??? can't i upgrade without removing my existing configuration ?21:17
ActionParsnipgordonjcp: then why should anyone else care21:17
infectedbrainerusul: my bad about that21:17
Jordan_Ughostnik11: You're welcome.21:17
erUSULinfectedbrain: yes i know; your windows partition is /dev/sdb2 /media/FEC81365C8131B89 fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 021:17
gordonjcpActionParsnip: I'm not actually needing to use firefox for the screenshots21:17
Michal31337[wget] how can i download only 1 folder from website?21:17
guntbertankur: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades21:17
gordonjcpActionParsnip: I did wonder if anyone else had noticed; a couple of people seem to be saying "yes, it does that a bit"21:17
ankurthat i have seen21:18
ankurbut actually the commands which are given at their are not working as stated there21:18
xanguaankur: upgrade to 9.10, then to 10.04 and finally to 10.1021:18
ankuryeah but howw???21:18
odiooCean: yes that command shows my disk, i want to access the files on it21:18
ankurwhat is the way to do that ?21:18
infectedbrainerusul: then add the exec flag to that?21:18
gordonjcpxangua: surely you'd be better just blatting it and doing a clean install21:18
xanguaankur: open update manager21:18
erUSUL!ntfs | infectedbrain21:18
ubottuinfectedbrain: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE21:18
BluesKajnormal, open alsamixer in the terminal and make sure your ctrls are unmuted , and turned up to at least 80%21:19
ankurmy internet connection is very slow that is the reason that i want to do it using cd21:19
erUSULinfectedbrain: read that to add a proper line for your windows partition to fstab21:19

ActionParsnipMichal31337: http://txt.binnyva.com/2007/03/download-entire-folder-using-wget-command-in-linux/21:19
gordonjcpankur: is there a reason why you're not just doing a clean install?21:19
ankurbecause it takes too much time to download 800 something MB21:19
ankuryes21:19
Michal31337ActionParsnip thx21:19
xanguaankur: you will have to download 3 alternate cd, it's the same21:19
xanguasince you don't want to do a fresh install21:19
normalBluesKaj: 2 channels, Master 81, PCM 10021:19
ankuri have installed many of applications in my 9.4 which are academically useful to me21:19
oCeanodio: In that case, you have to mount that second disk. Say in the output your second disk is /dev/sdb, with a /dev/sdb1 partition on it. Then you have to mount /dev/sdb1 on a certain mountpoint.21:20
erUSUL!ntfs-3g21:20
ubottuntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions21:20
gordonjcpankur: so, reinstall them on a clean install21:20
ankuris there any links to that alternate cd ???? i downloaded however version 10.10 from website21:20
ActionParsnipa goo alternative to eye of gnome (imho) is gthumb21:20
ankurwill it work?21:20
xanguaankur: no21:20
piyushmishrais there anyway to keep my user specific settings or restore them from an old time?21:20
xanguaankur: only if you want to do a fresh install21:20
ActionParsnipor for more image viewers: http://tuxarena.blogspot.com/2009/04/8-image-viewers-for-ubuntu.html21:20

erUSULinfectedbrain: sorry that wiki is too complex...21:21
Jordan_Uankur: Upgrading will take many times more downloading than a fresh install.21:21
intraderjoin #ubuntu-one21:21
ankurreplacing kernel will work ?21:21

ghostnik11does anyone know how to enable a smcwusb-n2 wireless usb dongle as it works for like 5 secs then stops working, and checked smc website apparently they don't have driver support for linux 2.6, which i don't understand b/c it works by plugging it in, just stops working after couple of seconds21:21
infectedbrainerusul: its all about partitions though21:22
ankuri think it is a bad option to remove entire os just because to upgrade there should be any alternative...21:22
erUSULinfectedbrain: the line would look like this « /dev/sdb2 /media/windows ntfs-3g defaults,umask=0000,exec,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0 »21:22
ankurcan you please tell me where can i get alternative cds ?21:22
erUSULinfectedbrain: you have to create the mountpoint « sudo mkdir /media/windows »21:22
ActionParsnipghostnik11: if you run:   sudo lshw -C network; lsusb     then the product line will identify the chip, failing that the lsusb line hex ID will identify it, you can use that to find guides21:22
gordonjcpankur: from the Ubuntu website21:23
Michal31337ActionParsnip: i cant download 1 folder coz i dont have acess and i can't get list of files in this folder21:23
ankurohkkk21:23
oCeanodio: I was just guessing the device, since I don't know the output of your fdisk -l command. If you have 2 drives, you should have a /dev/sda and a /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. You can paste the output of sudo fdisk -l at pastebin.com if you want us to have a look at it21:23
dostokhanankur, you want to upgrade the os without installing the installed applications again?21:23
ActionParsnipankur: http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/21:23
ghostnik11actionparsnip: thanks21:23
Jordan_Uankur: There is an alternative, upgrading as explained @ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades . It just requires more time and downloading.21:23
ActionParsnipMichal31337: then that's controlled on the server21:23
ankuryess21:23
odiooCean: that was the disk21:23
odioit matched the size21:23
xanguaankur: like i've told you you will need 9.10, 10.04 and 10.10 alternate, it's the same, Why don't you want to do a fresh install¿21:24
dostokhanankur, is there any special reason for the upgrade or you just want to taste the new versions of ubuntu?21:24
Jordan_Uankur: Downloading the alternate CD will not save you any bandwidth over upgrading normally via the internet.21:24
oCeanodio: if /dev/sdb1 is already mounted at /, then you are "on" that 2nd disk. Just type "mount" to see what partition is currently mounted21:24
Michal31337ActionParsnip: can i get that list by awk or something ?21:24
ActionParsnipMichal31337: not sure21:25
infectedbrainerusul: then add the /dev/sdb2 /media/windows ntfs-3g... to the fstab21:25
ankurjust want to taste new version21:25
ankurno any special reason .... 9.4 is sufficient for my work21:25

piyushmishra1botcity: microsoft basic optical mouse21:42
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: it's a pretty impressive problem21:43
oCeanpiyushmishra1: a new user does not have this issue right? Maybe compare files in homedir ~/.gconf/ like ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/mouse ?21:43
piyushmishra1gordonjcp: I am a linux noob and this hurts oCean done that. they only have speed values different21:43
snake__I'm assuming it's impossible to change my partition from ext4 to ext3 without having to backup my files, or lose them. Am I correct?21:44
oCeanpiyushmishra1: ah, ok. Still, it must be an user-specific setting. Now figure out which :s21:45
pienkieI'm having some difficulty with a remote control (lirc: surprise-surprise!). does anyone have a good reference of how I can remove lirc, including all remnands of modules, so that I can do an install as if it was from scratch?21:45
ActionParsnipghostnik11: did the guides not show you how to set it up21:45
=== chris_ is now known as scarybeasts_
piyushmishra1oCean: its user specific for sure21:46
pienkie...please?21:46
snake__pienkie, you mean completely remove the program and all files?21:46
snake__pienkie, all of the files it uses. (config files)21:46
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: well, create a completely clean new user21:46
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: *do not log in as this new user*21:47
piyushmishra1gordonjcp: ok21:47
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: go through each file in the new user's directory, and compare it with the one in your own directory21:47
snake__pienkie, am I correct?21:47
ghostnik11actionparsnip: no guides right now i am reading a post in ubuntu france site forums using google translate and they said try different driver so i will try this carl9170  driver and see if it works21:47
pienkiehi snake__ : yes & no. I've done an `apt-get purge` of lirc & `dpkg —purge`of ay packacages related to lirc, but I also want to remove any & all kernel modules that may have been added along the way21:48
piyushmishra1gordonjcp: There are a lot of files extra on my user. its been here for some months now. and the other user I just created works fine so why do I need to create yet another user?21:48
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: if that doesn't do it, then log in as the new user, and try all the new files that have been created21:48
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: so you have a totally completely clean new user, without any of the files created when you first log in21:48
piyushmishra1gordonjcp: hmm21:48
piyushmishra1I already have a just loggen in user. lemme create a not logged in one21:49
snake__pienkie, not sure how to do that. Maybe I should considering I compiled my kernel custom :/21:49
pienkiesnake__: thought abou thtat, but custom kernels are tricky to maintain across upgrades21:50
ActionParsnipghostnik11: could try ndisgtk + windows driver as well21:50
snake__I'm assuming it's impossible to change my partition from ext4 to ext3 without having to backup my files, or lose them. Am I correct?21:51
ghostnik11actionparsnip: cool, will try right now21:51
dostokhansnake__,  yes. as far i know.21:51
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: oooh, just thought of another way21:52
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: create a new user as before21:52
piyushmishra1gordonjcp: yes and ?21:52
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: copy the config files across one at a time from your current user, until the same fault shows up21:52
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: gut feeling is that it's probably in one of the .gconf directories21:53
piyushmishra1gordonjcp: I would better make my settings again on the new user21:53
ghostnik11actionparsnip: since i just downloaded through synaptic ndisgtk can i just put in the cd and try to get driver for windows off of there21:53
gordonjcppiyushmishra1: well, thats' the other way...21:53
piyushmishra1gordonjcp: will I have to re install all softwares I installed on this user ?21:53
piyushmishra1there's like a ton of things I'll need to configure21:54

DrGrovQuick question about GNOME Art downloading. I am downloading some splash screens and login managers. Where on earth do I change them in GNOME on Ubuntu 10.04? Or how do I change them to be more precise22:05

PraxiAnyone decent with Fetchmail?  I have a ubuntu server 10.04 trying to setup Request Tracker on it.  The RT install went fine, but now I'm trying to setup fetchmail to connect to a local pop3 account on my exchange server.  My fetchmail log shows these errors http://pastie.org/1482493  I have verified the pop account works using thunderbird on a windows box.22:24

SharpclawHey everybody! How's my Linux peeps doin'? Anyway, I'll cut strait to the point... Where do I get an ISO image? And... why does it have to be so big? LOL.22:34
cellardoorSharpclaw, ISO for what? Ubuntu?22:34
rumpe1piyushmishra1, or "screen matlab"22:34
SharpclawYup.22:34
cellardoorSharpclaw, the website..22:35
SharpclawNice. If I use Unetbootin do I still need an ISO image?22:36
cellardoorSharpclaw, whats Unetbootin?22:36
SharpclawIt's a tool you use to get like Linux on your USB stick or CD drive. (I'm takin' that as a no...)22:37
ActionParsnipSharpclaw: you can use the minuimal ISO which is 12Mb but you will simply be installing the debss from the repos to install the OS22:37
KM0201cellardoor: it's to put an ubuntu CD ISO onto a thumb drive.... and make the thumb drive bootable.. it's pretty handy22:37
eriveraghwllo22:37
eriveraghello22:38
ActionParsnipSharpclaw: yes, unetbootin simply puts the ISO onto the USB storage in an appropriate way. You can use the 1-2-3 installer (if you use Windows) which will download and MD5 test the ISO for you22:38
eriveragRecently configure apache with modules davfs, and ssl and .htaccess, in a folder called share ... everything works fine on the local network and internet, using WebDAV clients.  But when I go with Firefox to https: / /192.168.221.125 /share... identification does not ask me to login and allows me to see contents of the folder (I know cannot be edited) even download files.  I need this folder is not accessible only by WebDAV (for se22:38

VarcHey guys, one ask. What mean or how can i know my: IRC Network22:38

cellardoorpunjabdapunk, sudo apt-get remove --purge openssh-server22:52
cellardoorpunjabdapunk, and run22:53
cellardoorpunjabdapunk, rm -rf ~/.ssh / on the machine you are using to try and connect to the server22:53

cellardoorSharpclaw, something tells me that if you have to ask questions like these.. you really aren't up to it. There is no way to modify 'Ubuntu' as such. Ubuntu is a collective of so much open-source software. You can probably hack about with individual components however23:03

Cpt_Zyphcellardoor i am still runing that command.. may i ask what line you saw that error at .. i dont see it my self.. i must be blind.. felt kinda dumb that you saw something so fast that i completly over looked.. but looking back at hte pastebin im not seeing what line entry has that sugested command to run23:07
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor or did you just know that was the command needed?23:07
SharpclawLike, Unetbootin or that other one I just downloaded a while ago...23:07
idarcellardoor: I just tried with a helloworld app and it failed when i included stdio.h23:07
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, its not an error, but it often helps to rebuild certain parts of the package management system.. I saw several breaks in that paste.. I will recommend running a 'check for updates' too at some point23:07
cellardooridar, can you get a replacement of that file anywhere?23:08
idarcellardoor: Its an uptodate maverick system23:08
estacion03I have one ubuntu comp hooked up to my pc with a printer and it works fine my other unbuntu (a carbon copy) will not print the uri are different any thoughts23:08
cellardooridar, stdio.h doesnt come with ubuntu if thats what you are implying.. it needs to be present in the directory you are trying to compile in23:08
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor understood... so you saw dpk errors and such so that = that sugestion.. sry just trying to understand and learn how to trouble shoot more etc.. and you think after this a sudu apt-get update would be in order?23:08
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, thats perfectly fine, I love people who like to learn :) absolutely! you get it! :) rebuild and collate the packaging system, then run an update and see how it fares this time23:09
idarcellardoor: it comes with libstdc++6-4.3-dev23:09
idarcellardoor: a damnit there is a lib32stdc++6 in here too23:10
cellardooridar, you using the wrong one? ;)23:10
SharpclawCan I "Try" Ubuntu more than once?23:10
RickyHarlineWell, perhaps someone may know what my problem is:  I go to install Ubuntu and there's a text thing that shows up first after the motherboard POST that says all the Linux OS info and then there's a screen with a small logo at the bottom, and then it sits there for ten seconds or so and then goes to a flashing cursor where it sits for infinity.  Can't find any solutions online...23:10
idarcellardoor: probably23:10
cellardooridar, what architecture are you running on?23:10
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor thank ya ill let ya know how it turns out.. i have another weird problem and would like to learn how to address it but ill wait till after this issue.. unless your leaving soon *)23:10

Cpt_Zyphcellardoor man this is a long fix command im likign what its steping me through.. while this is going ill just prep with.. this dell mini9 seems to lock at random.. i was told before my wl adapter driver could be the root of hte issue.. i was stumped and did a fresh install with hardwire update so the wifi would work.. (unlike last time i manualy downloaded it) it seemed better but started up once again and i cant figure out why23:18
trismfuri: you can attempt to run it with padsp23:18
geirhaTraintop: For a quick and dirty way to see what doing it with the UI changes, do the change in the UI, then run  find ~ -mmin -2  to see what files have been changed in the last two minutes.23:18

Cpt_Zyphcellardoor deffently not a windows one.. it dosnt work out of fresh install but i plug into hardwire after update.. the additonal drivers option pops up and i select between the 2 new entries both seem to work tho last time i used B43 and was told that was no good so im doing the STA driver this go around23:19
Cpt_Zyphcedllardoor one sec tryin gto figure out what option is being changed for the altgr key replacement window i have up atm23:20

Cpt_Zyphcellardoor yep .. completly random too..23:20
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, thats another problem for another time I think.... lets get these updates sorted first23:20
idarIS there a way to put apt-get packages list back to ubuntu stock list? Remove everything i have installed?23:21
furitrism, i mean wolfenstein enemy territory23:21
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor rgr that23:21
cellardooridar, essentially, no :/ why do you need that?23:21
inashdeenhi, need some help, a new spanish ubuntu user need help on using graphic card XFX Radeon HD 567023:21
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor my guess is the default for this option "Alt-gr key" should be right alt??23:21
idarcellardoor: becuase i have fucked up the dev packages somehow23:21
ghostnik11actionparsnip: you told me to get cabextract? i am trying to remember what else you told me to get as i just finished downloading wine23:21
inashdeenthis guy is like super new, and i cant speak spanish, he need a personal help rather than on irc chat23:21
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, thats correct23:21

estacion03can anyone help with printer networking?23:23
geirhaTraintop: Aha, then I guess your script needs to edit that file instead, then.23:23
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, shouldnt be..23:23
idarcellardoor: i have no idea what makes this not work, but install build-essential should be able to compile a c file with a main method.23:23
cellardooridar, normally you dont even need that... hmm... no guides for it anywhere out there?23:23
idarcellardoor: I never had any problems compiling stuff on Gentoo. :(23:23
Traintopgeirha: so you do not recommend using gconftool? -I thought this should be the script-interface to gnome-settings?23:23
trismfuri: have you tried looking here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnemyTerritory23:23
cellardooridar, opposite here, I could never get the bleedin xserver to ever start up :P23:24

idarcellardoor: hehe :)23:24
inashdeencellardoor: sorry. confused, tell him/her then'23:24
inashdeengordonjcp: thanks mate23:24
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, probably a key like 'notepad' or something that WOULD start up a customised text entry on Windows.. I think.. it was once a windows laptop?23:24
ratcheerestacion03: What do you need?23:24
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, if you can 'ignore' it thats probably best23:24
geirhaTraintop: Well, it's mostly a bit of a mess there. Most core gnome tools do use gconf, but apparently not all.23:25
cellardooridar, I built everything perfectly.. then voomph... 'No screens found'.. funny... how was it telling me that? ;)23:25
estacion03i want to change the url setting of my device23:25
furitrism, already looked there23:25
Jordan_Uidar: Can you pastebin your hello_world.c and the exact error from "gcc hello_world.c"?23:25
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor its a dell mini that came with windows but its got a mini netbook keyboard so it has the default ctrl , Fn, win, alt layout and on the right side is a right click key then arrows23:25
estacion03ratcheer, also figure out why one of my two identical ubuntu systems wont print on my network when the other one will23:25
Traintopgeirha: thanks a lot, now I gonna dig into that xml-file... :-)23:26
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, just try and ignore the 'compose' key :P23:26
ratcheerestacion03: I'm not sure. Are you trying to print to a printer on another machine, but on the same network?23:26

tensorpuddingghostnik11: you have the driver on a cd?23:28
cellardoorghostnik11, you don't need wine.. look into ndiswrapper, it can integrate windows drivers into linux23:28
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor ok doing an update now23:29
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor seems fine now *)23:29
idarJordan_U: any idea what wrong with my stdio.h file?23:29
RickyHarlineI will now say the same thing in a non-spammy way:  I have installed Linux about ten or twelve times, and I have never had any sort of issue with the installation.  Indeed, the installation gliding through easily in a contempt mockery of other operating systems is one thing I like very much about Linux.23:29
idarJordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/556359/23:29
ghostnik11cellardoor: thanks, but the thing is that the driver with ndiswrapper doesn't work when i use the auto.inf file it gives me an error23:29
RickyHarlineSo why then does my cursed laptop refuse to let me install the easiest to install operating system on the planet?23:30
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, okay, now run sudo apt-get upgrade23:30

tensorpuddinggmg: do you demand a remote shell, or do you want something like a remote desktop23:40
KM0201gmg: vnc is good, but if you want quick, dirty, and easy.. just use teamviewer23:40
Cpt_Zyphcellardoor the best way i could describe the random ness of the freeze would be a overheating CPU.. if i was dealing with a windows box which im familar with and troublshooting the Hardware i would of gotten down to the best discription overheating video card or cpu problem.. as i would of done a ram test already as well as driver checks etc..23:41
gmgremote desktop...to view a other desktop on mine over the internet23:41
tensorpuddinggmg: ssh provides secure remote shells, vnc provides mostly insecure remote desktops23:41
cellardoorCpt_Zyph, i doubt its an overheating cpu :/23:41

gohan_gmg: You can try vinagre23:41
Cpt_ZyphKM0201 na its deffently not a hardware overheating issue.. just thats the only way to discribe how random it is23:41

tensorpuddinggmg: but don't do it if you don't trust your local network23:42
Cpt_ZyphKM0201 understood .. np *)23:42
Anom_Hi23:43

vanguardAnom_: Does any other 3D things run?23:44
Anom_such23:44
vanguardAnom_: Segmentation Fault is a memory error in a C-Program23:44

furiguys, i've been trying to get ET to work with sound, but it says that /dev/dsp doesn't exist. what can i do about this? padsp doesn't work23:46
Jordan_Uidar: No idea. Try asking in ##c or #gcc.23:46
rusty149Hi, When connecting a VGA cable to my Sony VGN-NS20S Ubuntu freezes. I can still see the whole screen but it does not respond to trackpad, keyboard inc. Ctrl+Alt+F1 and SysRq. Any help please?23:46
Jordan_Ufuri: Have you tried "aoss" instead of padsp? What error message do you get with padsp?23:46
idarJordan_U: thanks23:47
Jordan_Uidar: You're welcome.23:47

ubottuFor Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto23:47
gmgAnother thing is how do you set a 3G USB modem to redial a connection when the pc restarts?23:47
HilarieIs it possible to remove the root password from my system?23:47
furiJordan_U: it says "sorry, your sound card can't do this" something like that23:48
furiJordan_U: will try aoss23:48
Anom_~ati23:48
Anom_!ati23:48
KM0201Hilarie: i don't think so, and even if you could, you don't want to.... you might as well use windows23:48
BlackliteI get random load average spikes, accompanied with htop showing HUGE red bars in the CPU lines23:48
Jordan_UHilarie: Yes.23:48
cache_surplus1hi23:48
HilarieWhat are the disadvantages of removing the password?23:48
gmgVERY FUNNY...I need a permanent connection to a workstation in case of power dips23:49
Jordan_UHilarie: Ubuntu has no root password by default, instead you use sudo.23:49
rusty149Hilarie: Ubuntu does not have a root password by default  !sudo23:49
Jordan_UHilarie: If you have set a root password then it is definitely good to remove it again.23:49
rusty149!sudo | Hilarie23:49
ubottuHilarie: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo23:49
Jordan_UHilarie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#Re-disabling%20your%20root%20account23:50
gordonjcpit's not really a great idea to have a root password set at all23:50
Anom_hi, I installed the fglrx drivers, but they don't work, how do I reset by drivers back to ATI ?23:50
=== andrew_ is now known as Guest79386
tensorpuddinggmg: what software are you using to negotiate the 3g modem?23:50
gordonjcpthe whole concept of "root" is fundamentally flawe23:50
stuhi23:50
gordonjcp*flawed23:50
HilarieI was confusing what root was23:50
gordonjcpit's an outmoded throwback to the 1970s23:50
Guest79386jfdncdkd fcsj djd zxz23:50
HilarieI am looking to get rid of the password to install things23:50
Jordan_UHilarie: What is your end goal?23:50
KM0201Anom_: did you install the driver from ATI's website?23:50
gmgGnome PPP23:51
HilarieTo not type in passwords when I am installing things, if I wanted that, I might as well use vista :P23:51
Jordan_UHilarie: Such a configuration is not supported here. Those prompts exist for a good reason.23:51
gordonjcpHilarie: it's easy to do that23:51
aeon-ltdHilarie: just no. seriously you'd want to allow anyone to install anything without a prompt?23:51
gmgIt redials when the line is droped but does redail when i restart the PC23:52
tensorpuddinggmg: that software looks to be dead23:52
gordonjcpHilarie: in fact, it's a case of adding a single word to a single line in a config file23:52
gordonjcpHilarie: but I'm not going to tell you which one23:52
=== zhang is now known as Guest38827
tensorpuddinggmg: you probably just need to add it to the default start applications23:52
Hilarieand remote exploits become much easier for malicious crackers.23:52
HilarieThat's enough for me to keep it :)23:52
gmgI did but doesn't dial the number23:52
gordonjcpHilarie: once you've worked it out for yourself, you'll see why it's a bad idea ;-)23:52
rusty149Hi, When connecting a VGA cable to my Sony VGN-NS20S Ubuntu freezes. I can still see the whole screen but it does not respond to trackpad, keyboard inc. Ctrl+Alt+F1 and SysRq. If I connact before boot it works fine.23:53
tensorpuddinggmg: the documentation for it might help23:53
=== Guest38827 is now known as hope
tensorpuddinggmg: as it stands, it's just a front-end for wvdialer23:53
tensorpuddinggmg: you can probably configure wvdialer to start when you boot up23:53
gmgI have been looking everywhere..just cant find a (stay connected software)23:53
estacion03can anyone help with a printing configuration issue23:53
musseasboa noite23:53
Anom_KM0201,    ATI  200M is not supported23:54
gmgMaybe I should surf porn and hope to get a dailer virus he he he23:54
Anom_with XORG 7.523:54
KM0201Anom_: i understand that, but how did you install it, thats going to determine how you uninstall it23:54
HilarieDo those even still exist gmg?23:54
tensorpuddinggmg: look up the documentation for wvdial23:55
gmgIn windows yes23:55
Anom_KM0201, well, everything seems to be working good with the right resolutions now with the open source ATI drivers23:55
KM0201Anom_: ok.. so..? why are you wanting to mess w/ it23:55
gmgWill try that but don;t think I will understand whats going on23:55
HilarieIs it possible in ubuntu to set up music sharing that would work with win7?23:56
david234I am trying to use iptables -t mangle, I want to test my rules, is there a way to reapply my mangle rules to the active connections ?23:56
ActionParsnipHilarie: sure you can use samba to share folders23:56
tensorpuddinggmg: honestly, it would appear that Gnome's PPP awareness is being deprecated by lack of people actually using it23:56
ZaelyxHilarie: you mean as the share that displays within windows media player?23:57
Hilarie@zaelyx that would be ideal23:57
ActionParsnipHilarie: there is also the web interface in VLC which allows you to remotely control what VLC plays out of the server's remote speakers (or to make it play movies ;))23:57
erghezi‎i cant open any files from 4shared.com23:57
vitualhola23:57
erghezi‎the file format are ZIP23:57
vitualalguien23:57
gmgWell if you can point me the direction then i would be happy to use something els23:57
cyphasewhat happened to the vino option that only allowed connections from localhost?23:58
vitualalguien sabe un canal en español23:58
tensorpudding!es | vitual23:58
ubottuvitual: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter.23:58
Anom_KM0201, sorry for the wait, we are just having issues with Edgers / Gallium, and google earth / glxgears23:58
erghezihttp://www.4shared.com/account/dir/mnEK6qIo/Ostad_Mohammad_Reza_Shajarian.html23:58
vitualok gracias23:58
erghezi‎you can click Download all files and get one big ZIP file23:58
HilarieThis Samba thing would essentially create a network drive?23:59
erghezi‎but i cant open zip file :(23:59
ActionParsnipHilarie: yes, a share which would appear and be accessible to your LAN systems23:59
HilarieAwesome, that'll work, thank yiou23:59
Anom_Anyone here have a ATI 200M video card ?23:59
